Polar Night Light Festival Ruka

Polar Night Light Festival is a light festival where the fell landscape and ski slopes become part of a large-scale light installation. The festival lighting extends to Ruka’s front slopes, the village, and the Aurora Glow snowshoe trail, creating a captivating visual environment that invites visitors not only to ski as part of the light artwork but also to grab their cameras and capture the magic.
